“The Naval Postgraduate School is unique. There are many institutions that solve problems and create new capabilities. NPS solves our Navy’s most vexing problems and creates our critical capabilities. In doing so, students also exchange ideas with the future leaders of the Armed Services of our allies and partners. This makes NPS, its faculty, and its students a national strategic jewel in our nation's crown.”

Admiral John Richardson USN

Chief of Naval Operations

"Preserving American superiority from the depths of the sea ultimately rests in our ability to think and adapt faster than those who would oppose us. Ours is a storied history of fielding offsetting capabilities in the face of global threats, but past performance is a poor guarantee of future success. The determined adversaries of near future conflicts are committed to winning the battle for the next great idea. The frontline of this fight remains the grounds of our academic institutions, with none more crucial to sustaining the initiative than the Naval Postgraduate School."
